Just got a Rolex and am enjoying this site

As posted elsewhere, after yrs of wanting one, I finally bought a Rolex (Yachtsman) while in the Bahamas on vacation--amazing what a little rum will do. I have owned Maurice LaCroix watches for years because i like their styling but always wanted to add a Rolex. I am in Va, and have collected Vipers (the cars) over the years but am down to 2. I am having fun learning about these watches on this site. Terry

Hi Terry and welcome to TRF. Good luck and post some pics when you can. Did you get a Platinum/SS Two-tone, or all gold Yatchmaster?

Hi Terry,

Once again welcome to TRF. That's a Yacht-Master (YM for short) you've got there. Already seen a picture of it on another thread - a TT white dial YM which is very nice. I have the same watch, but with a blue dial.

Congrats and wear it in good health!!!
